Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Happiness Project

What if you could change your life without really changing your life? On the outside, Gretchen had it all -- a good marriage, healthy children and a successful career -- but she knew something was missing. Determined to end that nagging feeling, Gretchen set out on a year-long quest, her own “happiness project,” to learn how to better enjoy the life she already had. Each month, Gretchen pursued a different set of resolutions: go to sleep earlier, tackle a nagging task, bring people together, take time to be silly, along with dozens of other goals. She read everything from classical philosophy to cutting-edge scientific studies, from Winston Churchill to Oprah, developing her own definition of happiness and a plan for how to achieve it. She kept track of which resolutions worked and which didn’t, sharing her stories and collecting those of others through her blog (created to fulfill one of March’s resolutions). Bit by bit, she began to appreciate and amplify the happiness that already existed in her life. Written with humour and insight, Gretchen’s story will inspire readers to embrace the pleasure in their lives and remind them how to have fun.

El autor, a través de sus notas tomadas día a día, reflexiona sobre los cambios personales y sociales que se van produciendo en su entorno más próximo. Se mueve por la azotea de una casa que no es la suya —en Andújar (Jaén), al cobijo de Sierra Morena— y, poco a poco, explora sus rincones...

Los Diarios Intimos

Libro Los Diarios Intimos

The private diaries record aspects of everyday life, woven together by the affective life, in an attempt to capture and contain them in words, and to retain them through writing. They originated as texts for exclusive personal use, but by subsequent developments, they have come to take another course and have been published posthumously, achieving completely different goals from those that initiated them. Such is the case of the two texts that are the subject of this edition: the diaries of Soledad Acosta Kemble and Jose Maria Samper Agudelo, written during four months and four days, before...
